I've experienced retrenchment , it's not a nice experience , I really sympathize with the hundreds of thousands of Australian who have been 'let go' . It'll be near impossible for most of them to find a PROPER job for a VERY LONG TIME - if ever. Lots will never work again. .

Any Australian based company who makes staff redundant here to operate their call centres overseas for savings should get looked at

It's the lockdowns that have caused this - not the pitiful excuse for a pandemic.
